How To Get Rid Of Tin Taste From Tomato
ROUTE: BEAS DE GRANADA - ALHAMBRA-GRANADA
As the horizon was not quite there today, but rather on the other side of the threat in As far as rain is concerned, clear (but then, everything was in the clouds of cotton to absorb everything and clear), here we decided, after shuffling several alternative routes, making this one-time and starting from Beas de Granada (living up to its name with a former coaching inn crossroads included), first by the Cordel amounts of Collado de Puerto Blanco, and continuing on the Ravine Trail Advocate leaves us near the cemetery of the city of Alhambra, down below the cliff above and ending on the Paseo de la Bomba de Granada. For this we turn
drive from Granada city heading for the friendly and cordial village of Beas de Granada , where we parked the car, begging a relative to come down to us back to Granada and so four of us, again, Antonio, Maria Angeles, Nieves and this humble fan of steps and and walking, as the very law of hiking sent by another of the old ways to Granada Beas.
start the hike on 10.45 h. as a reference point and the "sandals" well tied from the Plaza de la Iglesia of this friendly town and directing our senses and to the Camino de la Umbria , direction Las Lomas. From here from the so-called Cordel Collado de Puerto Blanco observe the new standards set up by the Junta de Andalucía reminding us that we walk by a VP (Via Animal.)

To our left we are looking at a beautiful view of some of the low mountain summits: the enormous Calar de Güejar Sierra, and when we left the clouds, the high peaks of Sierra Nevada, on our right the Cerro de la Cruz , Huétor Bridge on the A-92 and the beautiful nearby town of Huétor Santillán. Behind us a beautiful view, and as a farewell, we left the Beas de Granada.
Once past the "Lomas " and known for these lands "Tajo Clock" reached a crossroads: the two paths show us the same destination: the Ravine Trail Advocate. Known since ancient cattle track like "Walk of doubt." Livestock route that starts from the Cañada Real General Herding in the Green Puente Genil River and climbs through the ravine of the Advocate, crosses the current rental of Alhambra and goes to Winter Park and the plain of the Partridge, continuing the boundary of the municipalities of Granada Pinos Genil Granada and Dudar first and later. Following this route density on the municipality of Beas de Granada and the name of "String of Collado de Puerto Blanco." So we, today, but we were traveling in the opposite direction mentioned.
The road passes through areas of scrub, pine, oak and traditional crops of almonds and olives.
A scant two hours from the start of the march, we find the first buildings: the remains of an old farmhouse and the "Chapel of the Almecí Sto.Cristo" as literally stated in the inscription over the door.
is the Chapel of Almez where the feast of All Saints, a procession every year to honor the Christ of Almez whose image is displayed in a table inside, there in the back several niches the remains of individuals involved in these fields.
resume the road to meet soon with a series of buildings that form the so-called Andalusian Bethlehem, with more than a century, and we arrived about 13:30 pm, but before doing that high forced to take a small snack in the shade of a majestic century-old oak.

descended the gorge of Bethlehem, looking at some newly constructed buildings, some restored and some others in a state of total ruin. This whole area is populated by rich and varied vegetation, emphasizing large specimens of hackberry and oak. We continue our march
this dirt track approaching the farmhouse, watching several barriers remain open, including a gate.
About 2 PM we reached a point where we look at our feet the majestic Jesus del Valle and Cerro del Sol before our eyes, enjoying beautiful views of the high peaks of Sierra Nevada, and other low Granada mountain, as the Cerro de Huenes and Dílar Alayos in the background the mountains of buds and Arana.
resume the march with a gentle descent to the "Arquillos " aqueduct water pipe that is part of called the French Channel one of the few sections that are not buried. Here we find another crossroads: on the left leads to the boat Cenes, the right of Jesus del Valle, and we continue straight. After a steep but short climb, we took a red dirt track, we are entering the greatest exponent of indigenous forest enjoying the city of Granada: the Dehesa del Generalife within urban park and it leaves us, after the transfer of a battered metal gate on the area's soccer fields Partridge Plain where we stopped a little further, and in the kiosk in the visitors' area, to "freshen up" a little, in both senses of the word.

From here, only to continue straight, first leaving the Sundial pointing behind us and then that little walk in the road surrounded by cypresses vermilion to get excellent views of the city of Granada where there is a large stone table with seats concerned. And there, as well as stone and stared referencing sites and places in the distance, only a large metal post Sevillana Electricity Company disfigured that wonderful and great picture of the surrender of Granada to our feet.
From here, we descend steeply, passing first and visiting Rain water tank and then take the path that leaves us in the new parking the Alhambra in the immediate vicinity of the cemetery of the city, continuing straight on the Park Alixares and then "let down" with the brakes thoroughly trampled by the Barranco del Abogado to lead to the Slope Escoriaza . Then, go down the Cuesta Mills and ended up in the Paseo de la Bomba ; not before a brief stop to drink water from the fountain next to the house, which was in Angel Ganivet, and about 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
point and the end of this pleasant journey that has known little and as a reminder of those steps taken by our ancestors, moving and walking now so small that piece of our history that separates us and unites us both.
As always leave some snapshots of those moments that result in continuity and order our steps. *
